Etymology (2023)

Since the beginning of time, people have slightly misinterpreted and reinterpreted each others words... and beers. The study of words’ original intentions has always been a thing - see Yaska, Sanskrit Grammarian circa 7th Century BCE. Same with beer. Which leads us to the question: what exactly is a barleywine?

Etymology is a blend of two very different but equally delicious variations of barleywine. One a rich, toasty, English barleywine (Etym) and the other a classic, 12 month barrel aged American style (Ology). After months of study and reflection, we blended the two to create this bold and balanced beer. A smooth, rich blend of barrel-aged barleywines for the curious beer enthusiast.

Etymology 2023 is a blend of two classic styles: Etym (23) and Ology (23)

Etym: English Barleywine aged in Westward Whiskey Barrels for 8 Months

Ology: American Barleywine aged in Booker’s Bourbon Barrels for 12 months.
